I first stayed here 30 years ago, and have been coming back ever since, probably 20 times since then. It's my favorite place to camp in the Franconia Notch area, and I have tried a few other area campgrounds to compare. There are just loads of fantastic day hikes within a short drive of here, everything from easy/novice level (like Twin Mountain Loop Trail) to difficult/more experienced (Mt. Washington trails), but it's far away enough from the highway that it's so quiet and peaceful. Although depending on which site you stay in you can hear the river softly or loudly which I love, sleeping at night to that sound of rushing water. RV's are allowed, so you may have to deal with generator noise, it's been a stretch since I've been, but I think there are rules about not running them at night though. Check by calling them if you're concerned about RVs to find out the official rules. Communal water pumps provide potable cold and crisp water, and there are toilets in the center of each loop. Just a great place to stay tucked in behind the quaint town of Twin Mountain! One note: there are fire pits, with cooking grates if you don't want to bring a stove, however you will need to get wood, it's just too heavily camped for the woods around the sites to provide anything but kindling. There is a general store on the way in off the highway, they sell firewood there, pretty much at the intersection of 3 and 302 if I remember correctly.
This is a great pet friendly camp site. My family has been coming here for 3+ years now and I just love our time here. I get to roll in leaves, sniff new things and swim in the river.
Campsite was clean, spacious and near a river that is awesome to explore. Close to the presidential's and plenty of trail heads about. Not a bad price but have to commit typically to a two night stay.
There are plenty of trail heads within the campground. There are also many trail heads along Zealand Rd. The Zealand and Sugarloaf trails are a must! The Zealand Trail is perfect for the warmer summer days. Sugarloaf is beautiful during the fall with foliage.
If you want to camp in nature, far from the buzz of the city, it's the perfect place. Peoples here were respectful and helpful.
Usually don't give out 5 stars but the campsite was very nice and there was significant room between most of the campsites. We had campsite number 23, which was set into a recessed alcove in the forest. Soooo very nice. A lot of the other campsites were very nice too. The campsite was quite and peaceful. Would highly recommend this campground and would go back if in the area.
